Hi, my name is Charles Gregory, owner and director of Arts Photography. The journey of photography and business over the past 20 years has been a pleasure and an honor. To still be enjoying and serving customers over two decades on underpins our ethos and mission. To be leaders in stunning and creative portrait photography to improve lives.
It all started back in 1996 over 2 decades ago with a lightbulb moment. I had moved to London. My love for photography started after working at Liverpool Street Station in the photo processing department. I broke the machine on the first day! With the emergence of digital camera technology, I wanted to help people capture their memories in a way that hadn’t really been done before. Not even phones had cameras back then!
